Freedom House Welcomes your Bequest

A bequest to Freedom House is an effective and tax-advantaged way to make a lasting impact on the lives of innocent victims of domestic and sexual violence. You may specify an amount or a percentage of your estate that you wish to give. Some donors choose to bequeath their IRA.

If you would like to make such a gift to Freedom House, you may include language in your Will similar to the following:

“I, [name], of [city, state, ZIP], give, devise and bequeath to Freedom House, Inc. a 501c3 nonprofit corporation having its principal office at 440 Elm Place, Princeton IL 61356, [written amount or percentage of the estate, IRA, or description of property] to be used for the furtherance of its charitable purposes at the descretion and direction of its Board of Directors for its unrestricted use.”

If you are considering making a gift by bequest, we advise you to meet with an attorney to discuss the ramifications and, if appropriate, to update your Will. Please let us know if you have included Freedom House in your estate planning.
